    STA Superlug 9.00x16 tires on my M1008

    I did not want to be cutting a couple of inches off for you... you are back to 2800 at 65.8 mph... Interesting thought on the radius and circumference of the tire though. True it is still the same distance around the tire, but would the patch in contact with the surface be flat and not round...

    STA Superlug 9.00x16 tires on my M1008

    39" it is... 2575 at 65 mph... happy now? 8^) Roughly 55 at 2200 rpm.... nice cruising speed and rpm... Only I do not think you will find a 18.5" rolling diameter on these tires...

    STA Superlug 9.00x16 tires on my M1008

    If you take out an inch for sidewall flex and wear, that is 2900 at 65, that's howling for a 6.2..... begging for relief... Just shoot up here among us, one of us needs some reliief.... They look like a great tire for the Kansas boy.... I had a 1967 Chevy K30 that I put 7.50x17 tires on a...

    STA Superlug 9.00x16 tires on my M1008

    We do get some pretty awesome sunsets.... hard for a storm to sneak over the hill on us... What we run into around here is slick mud. Wide tires lose their drive and steering, they float on top and you go to the lowest point, which means in the ditch. We need a tire narrow enough that the...

    STA Superlug 9.00x16 tires on my M1008

    How tall are these tires? 37.5 to 38" new? With no radius loss from sidewall flex under load, you are still turning around 2650 at 65 for a 38" tall tire, 2700 for a 37" tall tire. That is still humming for a 6.2. Much better than the 3150 it takes to run 65 on a 32" tire. I always got my best...

    I am betting they work good, I like those tall narrow tires, at least for the part of the world I live in. Glen
